Thanks for taking time to visit my homepage. I have 30+ years experience working in the automotive industry, and I specialize in solving problems that lie at the interface between engineering and statistical science

In addition, I help clients develop and integrate quality strategies for failure mode avoidance in all areas of the business, but particularly their New Product Development process, working to detect and eliminate problems before they actually occur, which is often late in the project delivery, or worse still, with customers in the field. Click here for an overview of how I approach this.

For the consultancy services that I offer, please click on the link in the list on the left of this page; the other links give some more details about me, my credentials, and my work.

In the meantime, a little about me...
